Even though, Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy are very similar they held a few differences like their beliefs of the original sin, the language held in the services, or status in the church. These two religions are very similar, but they have a huge difference among themselves; the Pope.
Catholics believe in the Pope, the selected one who will give the word to the Catholic church. The one who will overrule any other lower-ranked member of the church.
